User ID: 66197238 United States01/02/2015 06:24 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | There are various grades of stainless steel. One would assume that an inexpensive appliance does not use the high quality stuff. We all know they don't make em like they used to. Even high quality stainless can start to corrode from salts and acids. Keep that stuff as clean as you can, as soon as you can. |

User ID: 29696048 United States01/02/2015 06:41 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I have been making smoothies for a while now with this blender, I noticed a couple months ago sometimes they taste kind of tangy or different, thought it was just the fruit at the time, a couple weeks ago I noticed the bottom of the blades had rust and sometimes it leaks orange when washing it. I just Didn't think the rust would actually go into the smoothie. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 49719724 So today I just put clear water and blended it, damn water turned filthy dirty with rust particles in it. Anyone know if these things were recalled or something, I've been drinking rust smoothies for the past couple of months, can't this shiet make u sick... I and other I know have been using a Nutribullet for years....blades are stainless and no issues. Maybe it's just the Magic Bullet that was crap?

It's amazing that manufactures can get away with this kind of thing. I could easily rant for pages and pages. I'm everyone here could too. |

True stainless steel does not rust.....cheap stainless with impurities does....thank China for that crap. Not trying to sell anyone a Nutribullet, but I, nor anyone I know who is using it, has every had a rust problem. The guy in the video seems to have switched the MagicBullet and Nutribullet heads too. Different machines entirely....MagicBullet was always disposable crap. |

User ID: 66197238 United States01/02/2015 07:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | A common misconception about stainless steel is that is not affected by corrosion. While misleading, the phenomenal success of the metal makes this common belief understandable. One of New York City's most impressive landmarks is the stainless steel clad peak of the Chrysler Building. Built in 1930 of 302 Stainless, a recent inspection revealed no signs of corrosion or loss of thickness. The tallest manmade monument in the US, the St Louis Arch, is entirely clad in 304 stainless steel plates. Except for cleaning, the stainless exterior of this monument has required no corrosion maintenance. Closer to home, housewives work in stainless steel sinks that shine as bright as the day the were installed. Everyday the average American will come into contact with numerous examples of the success of stainless steel. And while the name correctly signifies the rust resistant properties of the metal, "stain-less" is not 100% "stain-proof" in certain applications. Read more: [link to www.estainlesssteel.com] |

Plus it pulverizes strawberry seeds and such. But I haven't had it long- if it breaks down I'll be going to thrift shops to look for one made before the 80's when quality mattered. |

You should consider if it's just your stress about the matter. Stress is the first suspect when hives erupt. I'd say that hives are more likely to be caused by food allergies. Eczema too. Cracking, red knuckles can be a sign. Take some Benadryl and see if the hives start to subside. If they do, you need to find out what you're allergic to. Muscle testing works if you don't have $500 for a blood test. |
